just another manic friday

sooo. this has been an insane week. I pitched to 3 of the 4 major networks. I pitch to the 4th next week. It's hard work memorizing 6 single spaced pages of your show, then putting on essentially a little play for about 6 people in the room, all of whom are staring at you! It takes a lot of strength not to just stop in the middle and start to cry cause it's so hard!! but this show i've created is actually a ton of fun and I really believe it in, which is a big difference than shows i've pitched in the past that i was geting paid to do therefore people had the right to interfere with my creative sights and change them and ruin them... now i'm pitching with a company who if I sell it, the network has to pay me but if i dont sell, i dont get paid, YUP THIS IS THE HOLLYWOOD DREAM!!

SO FAR CBS HAS passed, but it's not a cbs show and we didn't even want to pitch to them b/c of that very reason, kind of a waste of time, but it was good to get the kinks out with them and made adjustments for the networks that are perfect for this project.

i'm also busy writing my business school essays, as i'm reapplying. i'm reapplying to 3 schools i applied to last year and 3 new ones. it's a shit load of work, but thankfully i've done most of it last year, so my past self is helping my future self. i'm just repurposing my essays etc.


so i have a friend who is the daughter of a very famous person, she's also a tv writer so thats how we met, at the writers loungue. anyway, she's awesome. so one day last week i came in and saw her name on the list of people in the lounge and was excited to see her, but it turns out it was her sister who has the same intials. so i wrote on my friends facebook, "i was excited to see you but then I came in and saw it was your sister, and she's great and all but she's no (insert her name) well, the sister saw this wall post and got all bent out of shape. and wrote underneath my comment "GEEZ!" like she was all offended, so much so that her sister took it down!! Meanwhile, this sister is a fucking comedy writer and a very successful one at that, so it's kinda strange that she couldn't tell it was a joke given the fact that IT SO OBVIOSULY WAS!! i'm only writing this story b/c the annoyed sister just walked by me and i kept my head down as not to make eye contact! ahhh facebook, it's so fucking retarded as is humanity, and yet i love it so!
